We have an exciting opportunity for a forward-thinking nurse to join our Renal Service as a Band 6 Renal Anaemia Nurse Specialist. This specialist role offers the opportunity to develop advanced clinical knowledge and skills while leading in the management of a growing and increasingly complex renal anaemia service across NHS Fife.
Working as part of our established multidisciplinary renal team, you will play a key role in the assessment, management and monitoring of patients with renal anaemia and chronic kidney disease. You will work autonomously to optimize treatment plans, and support patients across outpatient, dialysis and community settings.
Renal anaemia is a complex long-term condition requiring specialist assessment, treatment optimisation and ongoing monitoring. The successful candidate will manage a specialist caseload and work closely with Renal Consultants, Specialist Nurses, Pharmacists, Primary Care colleagues and the wider multidisciplinary team to deliver high-quality, evidence based care.
What We’re Looking For:
This is an excellent opportunity to join a supportive and forward-thinking team, develop specialist expertise in renal anaemia management, and help shape the future delivery of renal services within NHS Fife.

AI tools like ChatGPT or Copilot can be great for planning and preparing your application—but your answers must be your own.
Show us the real you: Your application should reflect your skills, experience, and motivations authentically.
Use AI wisely: It’s fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don’t let it write your answers.
Why this matters: Applications that rely on AI-generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements.
Tip: Think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you—not an AI tool.
